What is TC350™ Laminates ?

TC350™ fiberglass reinforced, ceramic-filled, PTFE-based composite for printed
circuit board substrates, offers outstanding thermal conductivity to enhance
heat transfer, thereby reducing dielectric and insertion loss. This leads to
higher gains and efficiencies in amplifiers and antennas. Its increased thermal
conductivity handles higher power, reduces hot-spots, and boosts device
reliability. TC350 laminates are effective in designs with limited thermal
management, improving heat transfer through the laminate, lowering junction
temperatures, and extending the lifespan of active components. This is vital
for power amplifier reliability, increasing MTBF, and minimizing warranty costs.
Additionally, its lower operating temperatures and matching thermal expansion
characteristics with chips enhance component attachment reliability, reducing
issues like solder fatigue and joint failure.

TC350 laminates maintain excellent dielectric constant stability across various
temperatures, crucial for power amplifier and antenna designers in maximizing
gain and minimizing bandwidth loss. This stability is also key for phase and
impedance sensitive devices like network transformers in power amplifiers or
Wilkinson Power Dividers.

The laminate’s low Z-Direction CTE matches copper, ensuring exceptional plated
through-hole reliability. TC350 laminates, being a ‘soft substrate’, is resistant to
stress from vibration and impact, meeting modern drop testing standards. It
bonds strongly to copper using microwave grade, low profile copper, avoiding
the need for ‘toothy copper’ used in ceramic hydrocarbons. This smooth copper
results in even lower insertion loss, particularly beneficial at higher RF and
microwave frequencies
